Super Smash Bros Wii U and 3DS Thread 3: Ridley's Believe It or Not!

1. Nintendo has nothing to do with these releases
2. What opportunity?

Nintendo just doesn't get it. You know the demographic that stays up to see these pics? That's who Nintendo should be trying to get. There are literally dozens of people and Nintendo is just not using logic right now.

Pic of the day. There weren't a lot of people who used the Shield Breaker to break people's shields, so we've now made it much more powerful. This pic is from immediately after a shield break.

...





Sakurai balancing logic at work, ladies and gentlemen.
 
marth's shield breaker was already crazy good at breaking shields in brawl

what is sakurai smoking

does he even play his own game

but hey if link's new down air is too strong, he'll take it out no problem ^_^
 
By the way, Nintendo has yet to release the superior SNES version of Wario's Woods on any of it's download services.

If Smash 4 basically just turns into Brawl- I might actually be okay with it.
 
there weren't a lot of people who used meta knight's tornado to inflict damage, so we've now made it much more powerful

surely SSB4 will open with a Nintendo-sponsored tournament
ruleset: 4 player FFA, 2 minute timer, random stage selection+items on, first to two wins advances
:P

If Nintendo was doing these pictures, then I may agree with you...but they're not, and their intent is not to disseminate new information, ergo your complaints are flawed.

I think he was joking especially when he says dozens lol
 
Sorry, but I have seen many asinine comments akin to that across NeoGAF in recent weeks so it's hard to tell who is being sarcastic and who is just ridiculous :p

So they'll probably gimp Marth in some other way to make up for it. Everything is still up in the air until the final balancing is done.

Is it my imagination or is Marth's model looking amazing technically? O_o Much better than I remembered other models looking, maybe they are polishing them up.

That said, they're missing something important.

Shadows.

The models do look nicer, they are probably optimising all the time, maybe they turned the shadows temporarily off. The characters did have shadows in the last picture:

Everyone is ridiculous around here, mate. Especially when it comes to Nintendo and even more especially when it comes to Smash.

P.S. I love your website.
 
No I know it's just... wasn't the shieldbreaker already really good at breaking shields? Or was it nerfed in Brawl, I forget.
It was good at breaking shields, but way harder to connect than in Melee. To the point it went from my most used attack to an attack I literally never used.
 
Marth's Gatotsu-Breaker was exceedingly good at taking shield strength away unless you fought some folks who were really good at just frame shields. The hell is going on in here? :P

man you think that's bad, you should've seen his original miiverse post before he promptly took it down:
"There are less competitive players of smash then there are owners of the wii u, so I can do what the fuck ever when it comes to balance. 420 get rekt"
 
Guize guize... you're missing the most important thing about this pic...

No shadows. Confirmed.


Yes, I'm joking. But seriously, why are there no shadows in this pic?
 
Olimar - Friday
Luigi - Wednesday
Peach - Thursday
Toon Link - Thursday
Sonic - Tuesday
Marth - Thursday

There's no real pattern. Any day is fair game.

Actually, going by that, there *is* kind of a pattern so far.

Luigi and Sonic were revealed through Nintendo Directs. Which means that besides Olimar, every non-ND character reveal has been on a Thursday.

I wouldn't put too much stock in this yet, but maybe worth noting if our next reveal is also on Thursday.
 
Marth is generally very good in both Melee and Brawl and I suppose he will be just as good as ever. I played Brawl fairly competitively until about early 2011 and there were some Marths I could almost never beat but I can recall that move connecting and breaking my shield about 3 times in all those years. And I was a DK and Bowser mainer, they get hit by everything. I never thought that attack was that effective, so more power to the always high tier Marth I suppose.

So far it seems moves are getting stronger and characters are dying at a lower percent. Of course every update on a characters power has been about how much stronger they've gotten and the E3 demo could have just been set up for faster kills to show off more gameplay and all that could change in the final build. I hope not. I hope the trend of more power and faster deaths keeps up.

There are shadows, they're just really light and kinda blend in to the ground.
